A moot court is a student competition in which the teams legally represent one party in a simulated court or arbitration proceeding based on a fictitious dispute. The court or tribunal, which is composed of renowned lawyers from the relevant legal field, evaluates the performance of the teams and decides which team prevails in the oral pleadings and advances to the next round.
The Frankfurt Investment Arbitration Moot Court (FIAM) is the oldest and most prestigious student competition in the field of international investment law. It focuses on the oral presentation of legal arguments before an arbitral tribunal composed of experts in the field, during a week-long final event held each year in June.
He is unique in that it links international investment law—one of the most modern and fastest-developing areas of public international law—with the history of international law and international trade.
